[Intl_DxMedPhys] OEC Elite field size issue

[Goode, Allen R. *HS]

Listers-
In the past there were discussions on the list about collimation/field size failures for OEC C-arms. Over the past year, our hospital had several collimation failures on new GE/OEC Elite C-arms, during acceptance testing. Yesterday we received the attached product warning from GE/OEC on this very issue. Looks like GE/OEC will be replacing the "squircle" collimator on many units.

If you have OEC Elite C-arms, you may want to check if any are on the very long list to be replaced.
